YES.....I had that same pain. I didn't know what it was....I started having them around 30 weeks...the doctor and nurse said it was nothing to worry about. Well sure enough they continued....I went into labor and omg....my contractions were exactly the same just more intense. I asked the labor and delivery nurse why does it feel this way and she said that it is common in many women...b/c the baby's head and putting pressure on my cerivx which causes this sort of labor pains.
I don't wish this feeling on anyone...but I know that I know beyond a shadow of doubt that more than likely the baby is pressing down on your cervix.

i am 18 weeks pregnant and i get these weird pains right bellow my stomach like very top of my vagina and i was wondering what it could be. it only hurts like when i strain my legs or move them weird like pick them up or something. i worry about the smallest things. i also havent really felt the baby move and this is my first pregnancy but it worrys me sometimes?

Round Ligament pain should present from either side to center of your lower abdomen or in the pelvic region. Not your actual Vagina(where the penis enters during intercourse) If you are actually having pain IN your vagina make sure it isn't cervical check with your dr.
